PHASES OF LIFE.

An amusing discussion took place at the
Democratic meeting on Tuesday night. The
fourth judgeship was under discussion and
some one used the name of Col. Hicks.
Il object to that title" said member, ''be-
cause he got no higher than lieutenant"
"On what authority?" demanded another.
''The Tribune says so,' answered Ed
Stevens.
'Mr. Stevens quotes very poor authority"
said Fourth-warder.
1.-The gentlem an is out of order'' said
another. 1T is not Mr.. Stevens but Gen.
Stevens
''That is quite right" answered Stevens,
'.and object to Lieut. Hicks being raised
quite SO near my grade"

When Genevieve Ward played the ssOueen's
FaSorite'' in this city, a character on the stage
was, addressed as Mr.. Singeon.'' Such a
name did not appear in the cast, but it was
finally learned that "Singeon'' was the pro-
nunciation of 'St. John.' This recalled an
episode at the West hotel some little time
ago. a very Englsh-lookiEg gentleman ap-
preached Chief Clerk Hyser and said
"Ah, would you please hand me the key to
me room?''
Hyser looked at him to place him, and the
stranger said:
II am Singeon Sintlidger, of Snooks."
Hyser did not remember the name as one
on the register, and still looked puzzled until
key and disappeared. Hyser looked ON the
books and found opposite G20 the name st.

sum of $500 was paid w. X. Hicks.

Accusations Against Each Other.
In the divorce case of Alvin Parker
against Martha f. Parker, wherein the hus-
band alleges adultery on the part of the de-
fendant. an answer was filed yesterday by
Mrs. Parker, in which she denies in toto
the charges of adultery, and that she is not
a fit person to have the custody of the chill
dren. She brings counter charges, in which
she demands that divorce be granted to
her, instead of to her husband. In her
complaint she alleges that she has always
been good and faithful wife, and has
done all in her power to get along with her
husband, but that he has, for the past ten
years, been guilty of cruel and inhuman
treatment towards her, calling her vile
names, accusing her of being untrue to him
and at times threatening to kill her. She
also states that in October, 1885, he
knocked her down, and when she arose or
dered her from the house, and since then
has refused to provide a home for her. 1t
is charged that Mr.. Parker, on account of
his grossly immoral principles and vile hab-
its, is not fit person to have the custody

ANNAPOLIS ND, FRIDAY EVENING OCTOBER Z, 1887.


In speaking with an old army officer on
the subject Of the frequent Indian out.
breaks within the past few years, he adj.
yanced a singular theory, which, TO his
mind, at least, accounted satisfactorily
for much that has heretofore seemed in
explicable. Said my friend: "In old
times, when it was necessary TO prove the
assent to written contract of persons
who could neither read nor write, this
was done by afiixing their seals. When
the Indian makes a contract he does SO by
word of mouth, sealing the contract with
that solemnity which, to n redskin, means
all things-he shakes hands upon it. This
is a custom with the Indian which is re-
served exclusively to ratify his contract,
and never as with us, in salutation.
"When an occasion of Importance de-
mands that the chiefs shall come to Wash
ington, before starting they represent to
their tribes the business in hand, and state
that they will 60 and see the Great Father,
with whom they will enter into treaty.
Arrived in Washington, an interpreter
presents their case to the president, who,
in good will TO show that he is not above
giving kind reception to the humblcst
man in the country, advances and proffers
his hand. The chiefs are delighted, and
return to their tribes, setting forth that
the Great Father has acceded to their
wishes, because, after hearing the case, he
shook hands with them. If, after the ex-
ecution of contract in the presence of
witnesses subsequently sworn to and re-
corded, we should then break it so that
suit in court would be the only remedy to
the party injured thereby, the situation
would not be more serious here, while the
president shakes hands with an Indian
who afterward does not get or enjoy what
he understood would be given by that act
of handshaking. All of which goes to
prove, in conclusion, that the president
should never shake hands with an In
dian. ."-Washington Letter.

TnrtuRna Island,

Commander Ullmann, a retired off
Ger of the Hungarian army, who is now
travelling in this country, is the owner of
the Tortugas Island, about which the
Haytian and British governments bad
quite controversy some timeavo Tor
tugas Island is considered valuable for
naval station, as it has the best advanta-
ges for the large ships of war and several
natural harbors. Great Britain, 1t was
said, wanted the island for this purpose,
and the United States. were also interes-
ted in it for this reason. The British
government threatened TO seize the island
on account of claim of $1,000 900, but
this was settled by the payment of $160,
600. The Haytian government owned
the island and was in need Of funds.
When they were pressed for the claim
they speedily raised the money in Paris
and the next thing we hear is that the is
land was purchased by Commander I'LL
mann. He regards his purchase as val
liable one. as it commands an easy mode
of travel to the Panama Canal -
The new owner of the island is anx-
ious for the United States to assume the
dominion of the island. He has offered
the island to this government on very easy
terms. The island is very fertile, and
has on it large tracts of timber land. 1t
will be valuable purchase if the Unite

How the Turk. Make corss.

A special word for the coffee is needed.
The Turkish coffee is seldom liked at first
by strangers, but it does not take long for
one to learn to like that so well that no
other coffee ever tastes half 50 good.
There is small brass thing between a
dipper and n kettle with a capacity for
two, four or more cups marked upon it.
Into this is put cold water, teaspoon
heaping full ofssugar for each cup and a
small teaspoonful of coffee ground as fine
as flour for each person. These are added
TO the cold water, and then the ebrick, or
coffee kettle, is pushed down into the
Goals of the manga, or brazier, and just as
it is on the point of boiling, before it does
the coffee is poured into tiny porcelain
cups, which hold as much as half an egg
shell. This cup is then placed into a
beautiful gold or silver filagree coffee
holder, and is served with tray of
glasses of water First you drink the
water to leave your mouth clean enough
to appreciate to the full the delicious
aroma of the coffee. No milk or cream is
added and the coffee is thick with
grounds, and on the top of each cup
should be foam called kaimnc. or cream.
AS soon as you enter harem the chief
lady, or bascadine hanum, claps her
